Its wettable powder formulation ensures easy application and seamless integration into existing agricultural practices, making it an essential component of integrated pest management.
Target Nematodes:
- Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne incognita)
- Cyst nematodes (Heterodera medicaginis and Globodera spp.)
- Root lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus loosi)
Target Crops:
- Tomato
- Brinjal (Eggplant)
- Okra

Mode of Action:
Katyayani Nematode Plus operates through the unique lifecycle of Verticillium chlamydosporium, a beneficial entomopathogenic fungus that parasitizes nematodes:
- Colonization: The fungus establishes a symbiotic relationship with the plant’s roots.
- Infection: The fungus produces chlamydospores, which parasitize nematodes.
- Nematode Parasitism: Upon contact, the chlamydospores penetrate and infect the nematode's body.
- Nematode Death: The fungus weakens and kills the nematode by feeding on its tissues.
- Reproduction and Spread: The fungus produces new spores to infect additional nematodes, continuing the biocontrol process.
Method of Application:
- Soil Application: Apply 5 kg per hectare directly to the soil.
- Seed Treatment: Use 20 grams per kg of seeds.
Dosage:
- Soil Application: 5 kg per hectare
- Seed Treatment: 20 gm per kg of seeds
